My partner and I stayed here from early May into late June. We originally planned to stay for 4 weeks, but extended our stay at this property by an additional 2 weeks. We really enjoyed our stay, and definitely feel that we made the right choice by staying here.
Firstly, we had an excellent experience with our host, Poonrit. He was very responsive to our messages, both before and during our stay. He was kind enough to answer all of our questions, and offer help when needed.
You can enter the building via the parking garage on the ground floor, which is always lit, and has a security guard supervising at almost all times. The security staff were friendly and quite helpful (they watched over our Grab/food deliveries on more than a few occasions!) Keycard entry to the building and room. To reach other floors, there is one elevator and a flight of stairs.
The building has a small gym and a rooftop pool, which were both open until 8PM. Another nice thing was that the stairway has a trash-bin at each floor, which made it much easier to keep the room clean.
The room was comfortable, with plenty of space for two people. There are two air conditioning units - one in the living area and one in the bedroom - as well as two televisions (living area/bedroom) with streaming boxes. One of the television’s streaming boxes had an issue, but Poonrit was able to quickly change it out. This really was no problem at all. He was flexible in finding a convenient time to fix the problem, and responded quickly!
Having both a small dining table and the coffee table by the couch was useful. The two bathrooms made things much easier, as well. We did have a small issue with a sink-leak in one bathroom, but Poonrit was again quick to help and it was not an issue. (Laundry) washing machine worked well, and the small balcony has a rolling rack to dry your clothes outside.
The bedroom has a substantial closet with a lot of storage space. The bed was comfortable, and there was surprisingly little noise in the room at night, considering how close we were to a main road. (No construction nearby when we visited!)
Our room was stocked with two sets of bedsheets, cooking and flatware essentials, various toiletries and plenty of cleaning products (which we really appreciated!)
The location was absolutely perfect for us. Upon exiting the building, you can walk up the soi/alley towards the street (Sukhumvit Rd.), reaching the stairs leading up to BTS (sky-train) Asok station in maybe 60 seconds. Just make sure to look both ways before stepping out into the alley, as cars will sometimes pass through.
With an additional couple of minutes, you can continue through the BTS station - on the skywalk over the busy Sukhumvit Road - to MRT (subway) Sukhumvit station underground. This allowed us quick access to many other areas of the city.
From this same BTS station, you can quickly enter Terminal 21, a large multi-story shopping mall with various essentials - including a grocery store on the basement floor. Using the same elevated skywalk, you can also spend a few more minutes to safely reach Robinson’s Dept. store (with a larger grocery store, Tops Market, on its own ground floor.)
As an added bonus, there is a great Thai restaurant (named “Suda”) with patio/street seating sharing the same soi/alley with the property. You can immediately see this restaurant upon leaving the property. This spot was a really convenient choice, with enjoyable food and good portions. If you try it, be sure to thank Poonrit for the great suggestion!
All in all, our stay was a really great experience. A quality room/property, a great location and an excellent host! We plan to stay here in the future.
